Unions criticise coalition government, plan massive demonstrations

PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad, CMC – Labour leaders Wednesday criticised the coalition People’s Partnership government of Prime Minister Kamla Persad Bissessar describing it as a “spiteful and ruthless” administration that has trampled the rights of workers.
They gave Persad Bissessar, who in 2010 participated in Labour Day march here, a failing grade, adding that after three years of being in office “we have seen no progress.
“What we have today is prosperity for their friends, family and financiers” the labour leaders said, reminding workers that in 2010 the coalition had “endorsed labour” to the point of incorporating “several elements of the Workers Agenda into their manifesto”.
